Hi, with the patches to sat-solver and libzypp I've posted last night and earlier today, zypper seems to work with rpm5 -- I could successfully uninstall a library and everything that depends on it.
Now I'm going to make our repositories compatible with zypper -- but I couldn't find a lot of documentation on how to do that on the server side. Looking at the download.videolan.org repository listed as an example in http://en.opensuse.org/Zypper/Usage, I see it uses a .repo and a .ymp file for its metadata -- but wouldn't just dumping a solv file in the repository, generated with "rpms2solv *.rpm" do the trick without having to do a conversion on the fly?
If .repo+.ymp is indeed the way to go, what would I use to autogenerate a ymp file from the packages? If a .solv file is the way to go, what other files are needed and what is the best directory layout? solv file in the top level directory with i586/x86_64/src/... directories below it?
As explained on irc, just use createrepo from yum: createrepo dirwithrpms/ libzypp does not download solv files yet. Duncan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help@opensuse.org
